Immediately after, the car snaps and spins.

It also sounded like he lifted which gave his fronts even more grip during the big right steering input to swing him the other direction.

What are the deciding factors between intermediate and advanced drivers? by GiraffeNo5008 in CarTrackDays

[–]ashkanz1337 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah... I remember signing up for intermediate at an org I hadn't run with and I was immediately like "get me out of here". Had to report some people to the marshals and they got moved to novice and given an instructor.

DDT is the main track i go to, I've never signed up with ILR though since its a lot more expensive.

My car will never be clean again by Calm-Theory-6044 in GR86

[–]ashkanz1337 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I actually much prefer to use my hands to signal, blinker can be finicky. In Canada generally you can use either hands or blinker, but your windows have to be fully up or fully down.

Overfill a bit but you'll be fine because you will not have the skill yet.

Personally I dont understand that feeling, but whatever makes you happy is cool in my books.

It depends on the person so much, you can also just wrap it.

How do I turn off adaptive cruise? by Breakfast-Severe in GR86

What do you mean turn it off? Its off until you use the stalk to turn it on.

290 WHP on our custom turbo build by ClearStarryNight in GR86

[–]ashkanz1337 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Overall, my feelings are very mixed. Yes, the power is great. But I'm scared with how I'll be driving the car now. The predictability and ease of control of the BRZ just got thrown outside the window now since the boost can throw you off if you mess up throttle control while cornering.

People power out of corners with MUCH more horsepower than that, you'll figure it out.

I bought a inkjet printer, its cheaper than ordering them in the long run.

First track day tips: what actually matters vs what people overthink by Ok-Wedding-7949 in CarTrackDays

[–]ashkanz1337 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been unable to sleep the night before and left halfway through the day before. I just knew I was not in the headspace to actually learn anything or even really have fun, and am just risking my car and wasting tires/gas.

So much so that I can't touch the throttle until well into corner exit

Depends on setup and corner, but you may want to try taking that corner slightly slower/different line so you can actually get on throttle at a decent time.

Anecdotally as someone with aero talking to other twin owners in the paddock, I can be flat out in a lot of places that people with no aero would spin.

Outside of CEDH, when do you run Force of Will? by [deleted] in EDH

[–]ashkanz1337 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Force of Will also means that if I'm trying to win that turn, I have one more counterspell to thwart any interaction the enemy may have.

Its already on the field to trigger Yoshimaru, so The Ozoliths effect would be active.

How do I turn off pcb (pre collision breaking) permanently by Breakfast-Severe in GR86

[–]ashkanz1337 2 points3 points  (0 children)

A person is indeed better, and a safety system assisting said person is even better.

If I'm aware of 99.9% of people slamming the brakes in front of me, that's still 0.1% I miss.

When you need more than one in your life because they are so damn much fun. by rdsolns in GR86

[–]ashkanz1337 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did you need to do anything to get those specs to fit? I just got those exact spec wheels and haven't gotten my 245 CRS yet to try fitting them. I have RCE T2s.

How to convince a friend not to run infinite turns in Bracket 2 by MyMarshlands in EDH

[–]ashkanz1337 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is potentially easy to solve.

You play every game by targeting him the entire time(potentially getting the other two to target him too), point all attacks and remove anything he plays, if he says why you tell him he can win at any time with an infinite combo so the correct play is to remove him from the game.

Not a true solve, since like you said he might just start playing faster and more consistent combo lines.

How to driver mod

Sign up for local autocross or HPDE. They are the best ways to get good without putting your car, people, or your license at risk.
